emocan dance

A dance that the emo subculture tells us that it doesn't exsist, but in the depths of the society there is a dance that consists of one bleeding around a hat while listening to any type of screamo-emo music. the hat can be substituted for a puddle of blood, or in rare cases dead babies.
girl: "are you going to the dance?"
emokid: "only if they are playing Hawthorne Heights, the only dance that i know is the emocan dance...forget i said that because it doesn't exist."

Dancing Man

Originally posted on 4chan's /b forum, the Dancing Man is a collection of two photos; one of an overweight man dancing fervently, and the other of the same man bowing his head in humiliation as (presumeably) a group of people laugh at him. The caption of the photo said: "Spotted this specimen trying to dance the other week. He stopped when he saw us laughing." Due to the mean-spirited nature of the post, a Twitter user decided to start a #dancingman campaign to find the Dancing Man, and furthermore invite him to a massive party with hundreds of woman in LA. This hastag quickly blew up on Twitter, with even celebrities like Pharrell Williams, Moby, and Ellie Goulding supporting the cause and opting to perform at the party. The Dancing Man was eventually identified as a London native named Sean, who will attend the party.
The Dancing Man is proof that there is still faith in humanity.

remote dance

The movements you make with your hand when trying to get your tv to recognize your remote control.

All remote dances are different, but most involve twisting your hand around until the remote is almost upside down, thinking that for some reason that will help.
Last night i remote danced for like five minutes trying to turn the volume up.

Lion Dance

Lion dancers perform the traditional dance in Chinese culture, in which performers mimic a lion's movements in a lion costume. The lion dance is often mistakenly referred to as dragon dance. An easy way to tell the difference is that a lion is operated by two people, while a dragon needs many people. Also, in a lion dance, the performers' faces are covered, since they are inside the lion. In a dragon dance, the performers can be seen since the dragon is held upon poles. Basic lion dance fundamental movements can be found in most Chinese martial arts.
Kim: Whoa did you see that dragon dance it was awesome!

Johnathan: No, that was a lion dance, because it was only two people, the dance we saw 2 weeks ago was a dragon dance because you could see a group of bodies holding the dragon's body. Plus, in lion dancing I have to lift the other person's weight.

Kim:Oh wow, I didn't know that, either way they're all crazy hot.

Johnathan: Thanks.
